One thing people here might enjoy or like to hear about is ShortBox Comics Fair! It's a digital comics fair where you can buy PDFs of original comics by different artists!

It's open until the end of October, so there's still a bit over a week left until it closes (it happens in October every year).

I really enjoyed Blade of the Fane by Theo Stultz, which is a medieval fantasy story about Osric, the unmotivated last descendant of a long line of mystics tasked with defending an enchanted temple from invisible monsters. Unlike his ancestors, Osric was not born with the ability to see the monsters. With the death of his grandmother, an ominous prophecy about a dragon and the re-appearance of his childhood friend Daegal, Osric must face the dangers of a role he was never able to fill.

A shorter comic I enjoyed was Offering by Jocelin Kee, which is a contemplative urban fantasy story about a temple that is merged with an office building, an office worker who has to share their space with a god, and how they learn to live with each other.
I write poetry sometimes.

I've plugged Lesser Than Three in this space before. It now has its own website, making it substantially easier to, you know, actually read. Also to leave comments, if you're into that and you don't have a Tumblr/DeviantArt/Webtoon/whatever account. Content warnings: Furry (not like that; I just know some people find anthros of any kind off-putting), some turbbo-awkward social situations, and as of the current page, some very painful-looking accidental slapstick violence. (Well okay not "current" anymore because I forgot to actually post this after writing it. Whoopsie.)
